A Sloop of War (The Alexander Clay Series Book 2)

By Philip K. Allan

Alexander Clay brings the battered Agrius together with her captured French prize into Barbados, and is rewarded with promotion to Master and Commander and his first independent command, the sloop of war Rush. He is sent to blockade the French sugar island of St Lucia, and helps in its capture. But challenges surround the newly promoted Clay. The love of his life, the beautiful Lydia Browning, is now hopelessly remote in far Bengal. Lieutenant Windham is determined to find out the truth behind the death of his uncle, the Agrius's former captain. And the arrival of a run slave to join his ship reveals dangerous divisions among his new crew. If that were not enough, blundering around the Caribbean is the rogue Spanish ship of the line, the San Felipe.
